Title: Identification of individual isotopes in a polymer blend using tip enhanced Raman spectroscopy

Abstract

We use tip enhanced Raman spectroscopy (TERS) blinking measurements to identify the individual isotopes of non-Raman resonant polystyrene in a miscible, binary blend. Thus it demonstrates the sensitivity and selectivity required for nanoscale chemical imaging and broadens the types of surface components potentially identifiable with TERS.

Ultrahigh-Vacuum Tip-Enhanced Raman Spectroscopy

Journal Article Pozzi, Eric A. ; Goubert, Guillaume ; Chiang, Naihao ; ... - Chemical Reviews

Molecule–surface interactions and processes are at the heart of many technologies, including heterogeneous catalysis, organic photovoltaics, and nanoelectronics, yet they are rarely well understood at the molecular level. Given the inhomogeneous nature of surfaces, molecular properties often vary among individual surface sites, information that is lost in ensemble-averaged techniques. In order to access such site-resolved behavior, a technique must possess lateral resolution comparable to the size of surface sites under study, analytical power capable of examining chemical properties, and single-molecule sensitivity. Tip-enhanced Raman spectroscopy (TERS), wherein light is confined and amplified at the apex of a nanoscale plasmonic probe, meetsmore »« less

Distilling nanoscale heterogeneity of amorphous silicon using tip-enhanced Raman spectroscopy (TERS) via multiresolution manifold learning

Journal Article Yang, Guang ; Li, Xin ; Cheng, Yongqiang ; ... - Nature Communications

Abstract Accurately identifying the local structural heterogeneity of complex, disordered amorphous materials such as amorphous silicon is crucial for accelerating technology development. However, short-range atomic ordering quantification and nanoscale spatial resolution over a large area on a-Si have remained major challenges and practically unexplored. We resolve phonon vibrational modes of a-Si at a lateral resolution of <60 nm by tip-enhanced Raman spectroscopy. To project the high dimensional TERS imaging to a two-dimensional manifold space and categorize amorphous silicon structure, we developed a multiresolution manifold learning algorithm. It allows for quantifying average Si-Si distortion angle and the strain free energy atmore »« less

Single-Molecule Chemistry with Surface- and Tip-Enhanced Raman Spectroscopy

Journal Article Zrimsek, Alyssa B. ; Chiang, Naihao ; Mattei, Michael ; ... - Chemical Reviews

Single-molecule (SM) surface-enhanced Raman spectroscopy (SERS) and tip-enhanced Raman spectroscopy (TERS) have emerged as analytical techniques for characterizing molecular systems in nanoscale environments. SERS and TERS use plasmonically enhanced Raman scattering to characterize the chemical information on single molecules. Additionally, TERS can image single molecules with subnanometer spatial resolution. Here, we cover the development and history of SERS and TERS, including the concept of SERS hot spots and the plasmonic nanostructures necessary for SM detection, the past and current methodologies for verifying SMSERS, and investigations into understanding the signal heterogeneities observed with SMSERS. Moving on to TERS, we cover tipmore »« less

Noncontact tip-enhanced Raman spectroscopy for nanomaterials and biomedical applications

Journal Article Voylov, Dmitry N. ; Bocharova, Vera ; Lavrik, Nickolay V. ; ... - Nanoscale Advances

Tip-enhanced Raman spectroscopy (TERS) has been established as one the most efficient analytical techniques for probing vibrational states with nanoscale resolution. While TERS may be a source of unique information about chemical structure and interactions, it has a limited use for materials with rough or sticky surfaces. Development of the TERS approach utilizing a non-contact scanning probe microscopy mode can significantly extend the number of applications. Here we demonstrate a proof of the concept and feasibility of a non-contact TERS approach and test it on various materials. Our experiments show that non-contact TERS can provide 10 nm spatial resolution andmore »« less

Direct Experimental Evidence of Hot Carrier-Driven Chemical Processes in Tip-Enhanced Raman Spectroscopy (TERS)

Journal Article Wang, Rui ; Li, Jingbai ; Rigor, Joel ; ... - Journal of Physical Chemistry. C

Nanoscale localization of electromagnetic fields using metallic nanostructures can catalyze chemical reactions in their immediate vicinity. Local optical field confinement and enhancement is also exploited to attain single molecule detection sensitivity in surface and tip-enhanced Raman (TER) spectroscopy. In this work reported herein, we observe and investigate the sporadic formation of 4-nitrobenzenethiolate upon TER imaging of a 4-nitrobenzenethiol (4NBT) monolayer on Au(111). Density functional theory (DFT), finite-difference time-domain (FDTD), and finite element method (FEM) calculations together confirm that this chemical reaction does not occur as a result of thermal desorption of the molecule, which requires temperatures in excess of 2100more »« less
